  • Buffalo Family Portraits | Everett, Tommy, Kim & Steve | Backyard Lifestyle Session

    September 16, 2016

    So excited to share some favorites from my lifestyle family session with Everett, Tommy & their parents! I do not offer traditional family portraits in a studio, but rather lifestyle shots, blending poses and play, on-location or in your home! I love at-home family sessions for so many reasons; the kids love to show…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Amanda & Matt | The Avanti Mansion, City Hall, Forest Lawn, Cantina Loco

    September 13, 2016

    Get ready for lots of laughter, pineapples, Bills gear, tequila shots, and so much more! We loved being invited to capture Amanda & Matt’s story. They had a sweet ceremony, at the same church, with the same priest that married Amanda’s parents. How special is that?! Afterwards, we headed to City Hall, and Forest…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Sarah & Ryan | The Pearl at the Webb, Silo City, Hotel Lafayette, City Hall

    September 12, 2016

    I can barely contain my excitement as I upload Sarah & Ryan’s images! This day was just flawless, all-around. I had Colin Gordon along for the ride as second photographer, the weather was sunny, the locations they chose for photos were perfect, the bridal party was so animated and fun, all of the elements of that…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Sammi & Brady | Marcy Casino & Delaware Park Rose Garden

    September 8, 2016

    When Sammi reached out to me about her unique wedding, I was thrilled! Everything she wanted to do was unconventional, and I couldn’t wait to see how it came together. She & Brady focused on planning a day that was true reflection of who they are as a couple; low-key, fun, surprising! They held…

  • Buffalo Family Photography | Michelle, Jordan, Landon & Darren | Tifft Nature Preserve, Gallagher Pier

    September 8, 2016

    I am loving this season’s family sessions! I’ve had the most wonderful time getting to hang with such sweet littles, and patient parents 😉 I like to do sessions a little differently than some expect, and I think it takes a little getting used to since so many people are used to stiff and…

Walking through a giant camera obscura, learning about light science, sketching in the old art room, watching an improv show in the same auditorium I sat through dozens of art history lectures in & SO much more… Headed back to the my alma mater yesterday to explore the Imagine #RIT: Creativity and Innovation Festival with my kiddos & had a blast! 🧡🐅🖤 Their highlights were all of the robotic demos, glass blowing, pre-vet program classroom & video game design areas! This event happens once a year, at the end of April & should definitely be on your radar for next year. It’s HUGE, completely free & open to the public 🎉 Come see what life is like at Brick City 😜 #imaginerit #rochesterinstituteoftechnology #rochester #rochesterny

2️⃣0️⃣ years ago, almost every day, I would sneak out of the darkroom & over to Java Wally’s on the #RIT campus for a coffee break. I would sit at a little café table & daydream about life after college… 📸 Running my own business, having a beautiful studio & making a living from my photography, & most importantly, sharing all of that with people that I loved. Today, during the Imagination Festival, I sat at that same little table, in that same café, across from my MOST beloved humans ❤️ We shared hot cocoa & some of those dreams. Pretty incredible to press pause on a busy life & see just how fast the time has moved; to be placed back in an exact seat where you once absolutely *yearned* for everything you currently have. Two decades have flashed by (I mean, my babies are now closer to college than I am 😳), but the gratitude of this wild journey has never missed me. As always, thanks to everyone who’s been a part of it 😘 What a ride! Can’t wait to see what the next twenty years bring 🎉🎉🎉 [Slide 1 : Random college prints & a copy of the school art & lit magazine that I was editor-in-chief for - we were so avant-garde that we insisted it be the first unbound issue 🤣😜] [Slide 2 : The 41st edition, still going strong, picked up today] [Slide 3 : My two best creations, my lifetime masterpieces!!] [Slide 4 : My freshman photo class, just because I was so very 2003 & it cracks me up. That hair!🤪]
